A Reminder: (as a new week unfolds)
Disciples are Gardeners.
Weaving a Golden Wedding Garment.
Standing in Spiritual Approach (an Aquarian law).**We are to tend to ourselves, our families, our children, our friends, each other as well as the entire earth & her kingdoms as if we are all living in a garden (& not a construction site) together.

Today, Monday – August 21, 2023.
Sun in Leo joins Pluto in Capricorn – the fire of Leo on the mountain top of Capricorn – the Light Supernal.
Unicorns gather in this light – unicorn is a code word for the Ajna Center.
Libra moon this morning. Being harmonizers.
Then….
A three hour moon v/c this afternoon – 1:31 – 4:22pm (west coast time). The moon enters Scorpio.
Scorpio is the sign of mystery.

Virgo, the essence of Virgo, can feel like a mystery, too.
Soon (Wednesday after midnight), the Sun will enter Virgo.
From fire to earth – from the odd rays to the even rays.
From the mental rays to the heart rays.
A shift occurs in the atmosphere of the earth.

Simultaneously, Mercury retrogrades at 1pm (west coast time).
Mercury stations retrograde at 22 Virgo.
Virgo is Ceres, the Mother who tends to the Gardens of the Earth.
We are reminded…
To tend to ourselves, our families, our loved ones, our children, our friends, everyone & everything as if we are all living in a garden (not a construction site) together. DIsciples as the Gardeners. Risa

Wedding Garment
From Easter to the Autumn Equinox, as the Sun transits the northern sign/latitude, the Lord Christ (Archangel from Sirius, the Soul of our Earth) is working on the spiritual envelope of the Earth, the etheric field around the Earth, infusing it with higher spiritual forces drawing from the zodiacal Hierarchies encircling our solar system. This is the cosmic process by which earth’s “gold wedding garment” is being fashioned. We each fashion within our etheric field our “golden wedding garment” by our works of Goodwill, by approaching all that is around us with “spiritual recognition”. Approaching everything with kindness, mercy, love, and deep compassion.
Disciples caring for and tending all the gardens around us.
We are no longer in a “construction site.”
We are in the Garden. 

Today – Sunday – a new week begins.
August 20, 2023 – Sun/Neptune today.
Sun/Neptune inconjunct – Leo/Pisces – the heart of both is Ray 2.
Neptune refines us. Leo calls forth the heart of the matter.
Libra moon today – we choose to become harmonizers.
Harmonizers also can carry a flaming sword.

Upcoming Week:
Sun/Pluto on Monday – a very in-depth day.
Venus/Jupiter on Tuesday with Mars/Neptune.
A very auspicious day on Tuesday.
Wednesday – Sun enters Virgo.
We shift from Rays 1 & 5 (Leo) to Rays 2 & 6 (Virgo).
Also…most important…
Mercury retrogrades also on Wednesday, Aug. 23.
Mercury retrogrades at 22 Virgo.
Joining Venus’s retrograde in Leo.
When Mercury retrogrades we then are in an atmosphere of six retrogrades – Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Neptune, Pluto & Chiron retrograde. On August 29th, Uranus joins the retrograde pack.
Then we are in seven retrogrades.
A very inner reflective time for humanity.

Kali Yuga – time of darkness.
In our Kali Yuga, when the dark forces are out & about.
When the dark forces are in control, allowed to be seen.
So humanity can awaken & step forward in the Light.
And so…
Notice the multiple fires occurring, in the past & present.
Do not fall for the false idea that this is climate change.
The fires are created fires.
It’s part of the agenda of the dark forces.
To destroy cities, destroy civilization as we know it
in our country – frighten the people, control the people & forcibly move the people.
California was just the beginning.
Lahaina was the most recent & most devastating.
All land grabs.
Now fires are erupting in eastern Washington state.
And in British Columbia.
Don’t be fooled. Be a true Thinker.

More upcoming
First GOP debate begins this week.
We need a moral revolution in terms of the next election.
And BRICS meets. What is BRICS? Who knows?
In terms of indictments – constant political weaponization.
In order to destroy the only person in the world who can save our country. The only person who is feared by everyone in our world.

Gayatri
Oh God! Thou art the Giver of Life,
Remover of pain and illness & sorrow,

The Bestower of happiness,

Oh! Creator of the Universe,

May we receive thy supreme darkness-destroying light,

May Thou guide our intellect to truth & in the right direction & Right Action.
Om shanti shanti shanti

Stay tuned with a Thinking Observing Intelligent Mind.

A Poem.
For the August new moon.
Early morning after midnight.

August new Moon
Flowers are fragrant
The moon waxes and wanes.
Before long
the sounds of cicadas
will cease.
Open the gates
let the moon shine in
–(Basho, Haiku poet, 1690, Edo/Tokyo)

New moon in Leo in the early morning.
2:38am west coast time.
New moon at 23 degrees Leo (1, 5 2 at the heart).
Sun & moon in Leo – the royal sign.
Soul & personality fusing & blending.

We guide, direct, lead & rule under Divine Will (Ray 1).
We speak the truth (Ray 5) of all things.

August is the month of Leo & of Sirius.
Ray 2 flowing into the sign of Leo, into Regulus, into
the the Three Fires of the Sun, into the hearts & minds of humanity.
The Burning Ground. We are sensitive to everything
inside, around, above & below us.
Our Will, Love & Intelligence
are refined in the Burning Ground of the Three Fires.
New Moon tonight. Risa

Mary (the Feminine Principle) lifted up into the realm of the angels. This feast day is encoded with promise.
Feast Day – the Assumption of Mary.
It’s significance & esoteric explanation.
Assumption of The World Mother.
The Feminine Creative Principle within each of us.
Assumption of Mary –
The raising up of the feminine, the redemption of Earth & of matter (mater, the Mother).
Humanity in the shadow of matter.
The disciple must bring down the light into matter.
Through the disciples thoughts & actions, dedications & commitments. Life on the Path of Light.
Then matter becomes filled with Light.

Mary, the Mother of Jesus (overshadowed by the Christ Principle), is the type pattern for the new human in the Venus & Jupiter periods.
The lesser light absorbed into the Greater Light of the Soul.
In the heavens – Mary ascends into the radiance of the Sun.
Virgin, matter, personality, lifted up to the radiant light of the Soul.
The personality remains, as the Light of the Angels envelops the personality (the matter, the personality).
Light, radiance – the Angel of the Soul shines thru the person.
The exalted Soul attains powers & abilities of the angels.
Humanity’s desire body is perfected, becomes as a Light.
The physical & etheric bodies become an even finer substand, again, that of Light.
This is “Mary rising up into the region of the Angels.”
Generation becomes regeneration, generation exalted.
Mary is the type pattern of perfected humanity.
“What is man, but a little lower than the angels, crowned with honor & glory!: Psalms 8:4,5.
